Summary - Out now!

This unit focuses on the properties of number.  The unit begins with an investigation leading to square numbers. Roots and negative roots are then explored.  The work on index numbers continues; recognising and recalling the squares and cubes, square and cube roots of key integers.  The laws of indices are developed in the context of number and used to simplify index numbers.  With a strong emphasis on the use of imagery and pictorial representations to encourage mastery, this unit develops understanding of factors and multiples of numbers, prime numbers and expressing a number as a product of its prime factors.  It explores how to find the highest common factor and the lowest common multiple of a set of numbers and applies this knowledge to solving problems in context.
